I began teaching piano 4 years ago, I had not originally intended on teaching, but I had several people inquire about lessons, since they had seen me perform. I began to pick up more and more students, and I realized that I am actually very passionate about teaching, and sharing all of the knowledge that I acquired over the years. I encourage my students to be creative and write there own music as well as learning traditional and contemporary pieces to even out their repertoire. Read More

I like to divide my lessons into three different parts the first part would be a warm up in wish we get ready all the necessary muscles involved in playing the instrument with exercises that would develop dexterity and coordination simultaneously, the second part of how to listen is based on learning a basic piece of music that is guaranteed to develop the basic skills to perform something that they are interested on, on the cliff part of the lesson is to choose a song that the student wants to learn and analyze it apply what we learned by playing the basic peace and the warm ups.

I am a University of North Texas graduate. I studied with Jim Riggs and Dr. Eric Nestler and played in the top lab bands and classical ensembles while attending school. I later moved to NYC where I started my professional playing career. I lived there for 14 years playing with several music ensembles and studied with Bill Blount on clarinet and Lorrie Glaze on piano. I played on Broadway musicals like Avenue Q and Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. Read More

I’m a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. Between 2011-2015, I participated in Lancaster Bible College’s wind ensemble and graduated with a Bachlor of Arts degree in Biblical Studies and Children & Family Ministry Studies. Working with students in China, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Sttes has been one of my best experiences of my life as a fine arts instructor. Read More

Though I've been playing music since I was 10 years old, I had always viewed it as a hobby until I was a junior in College. After graduating from Texas State University in 2010, I nose-dived into the Austin music scene and after a couple years of networking and collaborating with other musicians, I found myself performing with a band called Calliope Musicals. In 5 years, we've toured and performed all over the continent and I've learned more about music and myself in that time than I ever have before. Read More

Most of my professional tutoring experience has been in mathematics! I tutored in high school, college, and over a year at various agencies. I find the experience has helped me teach my band mates music over the years. There are many transferable skills. I've played in numerous bands over the years ranging from soft indie rock to heavy metal. My catalog of original music is extensive and there are frequently written parts for many instruments.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Humans are creatures of habit and our physical abilities are dependent on muscle memory. In order to practice effectively it needs to be part of a regular routine, not an appointment, special occasion, or chore.
If we can practice 5 hours a week, we see significant progress in the first year.
My advice is to find a time when you won't be rushed or distracted. The end of the school/work day, when all of your obligations are fulfilled is best. Some days 60 minutes will be enough time to make significant progress, sometimes 60 minutes won't allow you much advancement, but 60 minutes, 5 days in a row, will yield noticeable improvement. Muscle memory is more deeply programmed when we sleep, so returning to a failed task the following day will recently yield success. As we experience this success we are more inclined to practice each day. I highly recommend playing 1 hour a day, when the day is done, Monday through Friday.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If a child has an obvious attachment to music, like singing constantly and sounding out tunes on an instrument, then it may be time to consider lessons. Children can learn as early as 5 years old, but its hard to get a genuine commitment out of a child younger than 8.
If a child is agreeable, has shown a sustained interest and is the sort of kid who completes homework or enjoys sports practice, then there is a good bet that they'll practice enough to see results.
In many cases piano is a great way to create good habit like discipline, commitment and project completion.
When will I start to see results?
That depends on a great many variables. Talent and commitment are the most important factors to seeing results. With a commitment of 5 hours a week a child or young adult can see significant results in 6-12 weeks.
If one begins lessons early enough one can see seriously impressive results within 6 months. If one practices 5+ hours a week with regular lessons at the end of 2 years one can feel so comfortable on their instrument that they won't be able to remember a time when they couldn't play proficiently.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I learned to play on the 1954 Wurlitzer spinet that my Mother's Mother bought and played. My mother learned to play on that piano and I began playing on that piano when I was 5 years old. Piano was a form of discipline in my household, but I had a healthy appetite for music for as long as I can remember.
At 13 I took up saxophone and later bass. At 18 I realized the superior utility of the keyboards. A saxophone is monophonic, a bass requires not hands to create a limited amount of notes, but piano is the only instrument played in chromatic half-steps, left to right, low to high, with 88 note polyphony, and rhythmic independence for each hand. No brainer.
